This article by Canon can be applied to any camera really, using the software Photomatrix and Photoshop CS3 or above.

You know, sometimes you just need a little help with your metrics; we were told that the US would be converted back when I was in the third grade but it never seemed to happen. I’m too old to convert in my head, so here’s a table to help out.

[PluralEyes - singularsoftware.com] Time sync software for DSLR HD footage editing
18. July 2009 by Vin.
This solves a big problem for DSLR HD video shooters since the cameras don’t have built in time codes to sync audio from field recorders or multi camera shooting when editing in Final Cut. Plural Eyes analyzes clips and automatically syncs them for you. Pretty darn cool! I finally appreciate mathematicians…
